CHICAGO --(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 7, 2025-- Xeris Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: XERS), a fast-growing biopharmaceutical company committed to improving patient lives by developing and commercializing innovative products across a range of therapies, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 , and updated its fiscal 2025 guidance.
“Total revenue in the second quarter increased almost 50% year-over-year to a record $72 million , driven by increased patient demand across all three products, with Recorlev leading the way. Building on this momentum, we're raising our full-year revenue guidance to $280–$290 million, which underscores our confidence in our ability to continue to drive patient demand for our products,” said John Shannon , Chief Executive Officer.
Shannon added, “Also in the quarter, we hosted our first-ever Analyst and Investor Day where we outlined our long-term vision and growth strategy, which included guiding to $750 million in total revenue by 2030, establishing our expectation for Recorlev at nearly $1 billion in net revenue by 2035, and highlighting the potential $1–$3 billion peak net revenue for XP-8121. Xeris is on an accelerated growth trajectory, and we are building a platform for both short- and long-term value creation."

Recorlev® net revenue was $31.4 million – an increase of approximately 136% compared to the second quarter of 2024. This growth was primarily driven by the average number of patients on Recorlev increasing 122% from the same period in 2024. Gvoke® net revenue was $23.5 million – an increase of approximately 17% compared to the second quarter of 2024. This increase was driven by Gvoke prescriptions growing 5% and favorable net pricing compared to the same period in 2024. Keveyis® net revenue was $11.5 million – a decrease of approximately 13% compared to the second quarter of 2024. This decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in product shipments in the period. Other product revenue was $1.3 million , reflecting the sale of Gvoke VialDxTM supply to our commercial partner. Royalty, contract and other revenue was $3.8 million and primarily reflects the recognition of an approval-based milestone for Gvoke VialDxTM.
Cost of goods sold (COGS) increased $4.1 million or 53% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in product revenue.
Research and development (R&D) expenses increased $2.3 million or 40% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. The increase in R&D expenses primarily reflects continued investment in XP-8121, and personnel-related expenses to support both XP-8121 and the ongoing development of the Company's technology platforms and partnerships.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased $4.4 million or 11% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. This increase mainly reflects higher personnel related expense ( $3.1 million ), largely due to investments made in the Recorlev commercial organization starting in the third quarter of 2024.
Net Loss for the second quarter was $1.9 million or ( $0.01 ) per share, compared to a net loss of $15.0 million or ( $0.10 ) per share in the prior year period. This represents a 87% improvement versus the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA1 for the second quarter was $12.5 million , an improvement of $12.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes financial results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and also certain historical and forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, namely Adjusted EBITDA. This non-GAAP financial measure is not meant to be considered in isolation and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and was not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the calculation of the non-GAAP financial measure included herein may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed in conjunction with actual GAAP results, provides investors with a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing and projected operating performance, exclusive of factors that do not directly affect what the Company considers to be its core operating performance, as well as unusual events. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure helps indicate underlying trends in the Company’s business and is important in comparing current results with prior period results and understanding expected operating performance. Also, management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to establish budgets and operational goals, and to manage the Company’s business and evaluate its performance. In addition, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is important in evaluating the administrative costs of operating the Company’s business.
Adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net income (loss) before income tax (benefit) expense, plus interest and other income, less depreciation and amortization, interest expenses, share based compensation and debt refinancing fees.
